This n8n template imports an XLSX containing terms dates for a university, extracts the relevant events using AI and converts the events to an ICS file which can be imported into iCal, Google Calendar or Outlook. Manually adding important term dates to your calendar by hand? Stop! Automate it with this simple AI/LLM-powered document understanding and extraction template. This cool use-case can be applied to many scenarios where Excel files are predominantly used. How it works The term dates excel file (xlsx) are imported into the workflow from the university's website using the http request node. To parse the excel file, we use an external service - Cloudflare's Markdown Conversion Service. This converts the excel's sheets into markdown tables which our LLM can read. To extract the events and their dates from the markdown, we can use the Information Extractor node for structured output. LLMs are great for this use-case because they can understand the layout; one row may have many data points. With our data, there are endless possibilities to use it! But for this demonstration, we'll generate an ICS file so that we can import the extracted events into our calendar.

Verify Japanese invoice registration numbers from Gmail using Gemini, NTA API, Sheets and Slack

Quick Overview This workflow monitors Gmail for unread invoice emails with PDF attachments, extracts invoice details with Google Gemini, verifies Japanese qualified invoice registration numbers against the National Tax Agency (NTA) Invoice Web-API, logs results to Google Sheets, and sends Slack alerts for invalid, missing, or inconclusive checks. How it works Polls Gmail hourly for unread emails matching “has:attachment invoice” and downloads the first attachment. Extracts text from the attached invoice PDF. Uses Google Gemini to parse the invoice text into structured fields such as the T-registration number, issuer name, invoice date, and amounts. Normalizes and validates the registration number to ensure it matches the required “T + 13 digits” format. If the format is valid, calls the NTA Invoice Web-API to verify the registration number and interprets the response as valid, invalid, or not found. Appends the invoice details and verification status to a Google Sheets worksheet. Routes the outcome by sending the appropriate Slack alert for invalid/not found/inconclusive results or marking the invoice email as read when the number is valid.

Check Japanese ad copy compliance with Google Gemini, Sheets, Slack and Gmail

Quick Overview This workflow runs daily to review Japanese ad copy in Google Sheets using Google Gemini, writes compliance risk results back to the sheet, and alerts the right team in Slack (and drafts a Gmail revision request) based on high/medium/low risk. How it works Runs every day at 9:00 on a schedule. Reads ad copy rows from Google Sheets to find items that still need a compliance check. Sends each copy item to Google Gemini with the configured product category, target laws, and extra rules to generate a risk level, violations, and a compliant rewrite. Parses and normalizes the Gemini output into fields like risk level, violation count, and safe rewrite, and posts a Slack alert if the AI check fails. Updates the corresponding Google Sheets row with the compliance results to keep a record of the review. Routes the item by risk level and posts to Slack for legal blocking (high), marketing review (medium), publish-ready notification (low), or manual review when the result is inconclusive. For high-risk copy, also creates a Gmail draft requesting the author to revise the copy using the suggested compliant rewrite. Setup Add credentials for Google Sheets, Google Gemini (PaLM) API
